So what did we learn yesterday? We learned that I am really ready for spring. What are we going to learn today? We are going to learn how I entertain myself (clothes-wise, that is) while waiting for spring.
A girl with an overstuffed closet like mine always has some things she doesn’t get around to wearing for a while. So for my entertainment, I’ve been seeking out the winter-only items in my wardrobe that still haven’t stretched their legs (or their sleeves I guess) this season. This sweater is one of those items.
I remember thinking it was the greatest thing ever when I bought it, but I guess my tastes have changed a bit and I just don’t get as excited to wear it as I used to. I wish it were a little longer and looser so I could do that oversized-on-purpose look. Instead it’s very fitted and conservative and grandma-ish. But looking at these photos, I still kind of think it’s cute. Plus who doesn’t like grandmas?
So what do you think: Keep this sweater around for next year, or should this be its last hurrah?

I don’t think it’s too grandma ish. I really like it. Plus I love that colour with your lipstick and the colour of you earrings. It’s a really great combination 🙂

It’s cute. You should keep it 🙂
I’m a fan of Military-style, and this has that look and feel, even if it’s a pink sweater. I say pair it with a pair of skinny jeans, combat boots and a sparkly t-shirt or tank… and a “recruit” hat. KEEP! (for now anyway)
Good point!
You can dye it green and have a great military-style sweater.
I love it! The military inspired details are so cute in pink. Kepp!
Of course the title of your post had me clicking through immediately.
The sweater isn’t my style but I do wonder how it would look with jeans, boots, and a scarf.
Haha glad you enjoyed the title 🙂
Haha yesss….love Thrift Shop. And that skirt!
I laughed out loud at the title of this post! I’ve been doing the same thing with my clothes this week… it’s starting to get warm where I live, but I’m trying to get in some wear of all the winter clothes I haven’t worn yet before I pack them away!
Props to you for finding those elusive closet items and putting them to good use! WEll done!! <3 Sarah

Keep the sweater. It’s a great color on you, and will lend itself to styling several ways, from funky to feminine.
You’re right…I should try wearing it different ways. Although I’m hoping it will warm up soon before I even have the chance 😉 But next year…
I love that you wore leggings under the mini skirt!
